Terse output of wine.

Frequent in-game crashes with no criteria required to reproduce other than
logging into the game and "standing around".

The only required factor is patience.  The first crash typically occurs
30-minutes into a session, with the second 15-20 minutes after restarting, with
gradually increasing frequency.

Eventually, crashes will occur within seconds or minutes of each other, and by
this threshold frequently cause the X server to crash.

I have tested various NVidia driver versions, and two AMD64 systems with the
same video card on two different distributions (Ubuntu Gutsy/Hardy x86_64
hybrid, and Sabayon 3.5 x86_64 fresh) as well as older versions of wine (0.9.6
and up) up to and including 1.1.0.

Although I suspect this is an NVidia driver issue related to this card, I have
read similar reports of World of Warcraft itself crashing on the Win32 platform
with newer generation hardware as well, and as such am reporting this bug to
Nvidia, Wine, and Blizzard.

Attached is the wine output in text format.

When crashing, a memory violation error window is displayed as well as the
Blizzard bug report feedback window.
